Soggy

My first view of the Opera House was white against white clouds... it almost disappeared! as i walked around the gardens, started to rain and was sloppy the rest of the morning... reminded me of the UK actually...

I convinced myself i was willing to walk up the hill to the National Trust Museum (SH Ervin Gallery) and since it was near lunchtime i started out in the cafe... only to learn that the cafe was the ONLY thing open! Lucky me that it was, had a delightful soup -- i would have been extra disappointed if i couldn't have lunch there!

Back down the hill to the Museum of Contemporary Art, to discover once again that sometimes i am not all that contemporary-minded... but it was interesting and nice to be out of the soggy layers for a bit... and upon exit happy to see a view of the Opera House that stood out a bit more against the clouds :)

mid-afternoon doldrums have hit... good thing i'm back @ my home-away-from home and can putter through them :)
